I have seen so many WRONG answers about how to do something or what the correct etiquette for…..
Don’t people read a freaken wedding book before doing these things?? Or is it just because their family does it that way, now they think it’s proper or OK to do things a certain way??

    I’d like to know what you consider wrong. It can vary from country to country. In the US it is expected of the bridesmaids to pay for their own wedding attire. In the UK that is unheard of.

    In the UK I’ve heard that it is acceptable to invite people to a wedding reception AFTER everyone has eaten to save on money. In the US that is unheard of.

    Bridal showers are unheard of in the UK. In the US they are quite common. Cash bars are a no-no in the US. In the UK they are fine and dandy.

    I guess it just depends on where you live.

    Why does there have to be certain etiquette’s to do something.. Why are they WRONG.. because you said so? What is your reason? If you haven’t noticed we weren’t made from the same mold. Everyone is different and has their own ways of presenting their selves..

    I mean my goodness why is it so wrong for someone to take the idea of something and give it a twist… Why does everything have to be by the book.. OMG could you see the same damn wedding for everyone.. Wow that would be so great wouldn’t it. no it would be so boring..

    Sorry but I believe difference is good and not being so text book is great..

    maybe you should try it one day.

    some people dont know any better and some are just plain dumb. i personally went to a wedding where they had a money tree and people were puttin $20s and higher bills and the mother of the groom asked the PRIEST for change because she didnt want to give them a $10….the poor guy was appalled and gave her change for a ten and she put five $1 bills on the clips..she spent the night bragging about how she used a bunch of the money hooks…yet she “forgot” to mention that she only gave them $5 total!! i still dont know whether she really was a moron or was raised with no class whatsoever….i think u should write a wedding ettiquette pamplet and sell it to brides!! then have them sent out with invitations so each guest knows exactly how to behave..ud be rich!!! :) haha
